Goin' All The Way, Day 8: Crown a king and queen

Talk about sparkly: as of this writing I'm seeing $27,504 donated, almost twenty-one thousand students reached, and 192 projects funded! Lissen lissen lissen: I LOVE YOU GUYS! Keep it going! More than halfway to that 50K mark!

Today we have a special mini-contest via Reader K and a mysterious coterie of faerie sprites, who invite you to Take Your Pet To Prom! Anyone donating to the TN Prom Page using a pet donor account (like this guy) could win a $30 gift card from PetCo! That's a lot of chew toys. Thanks, guys!

Donate to these, or any other projects on the TN Prom Page; forward your receipts to bunting at tomatonation dot com; and you could win that PetCo card (if you gave through a pet donor page), a $25 Starbucks card (thanks, Sarah!), or a $25 Etsy code (thanks, Melissa!)

Another match code kicks in tomorrow; let's get as much done as we can today! Tiaras on, wallets out, let's go!

I just wanted to thank the Tomato Nation for funding my DonorsChoose.org project, which was to get books from my school's Steampunk Reading Club. I started the club to encourage student reading and it has been a surprising success. The biggest problem I have is keeping the student members in books!

Your generosity will insure that we will start the next year with a bang!
